Fair Day

Our future is a celebration

Our future is bright for Fair Day. Over 70,000 people will take over Victoria Park on Sunday 18 Febrary for our rampant rainbow extravaganza! Join us from day-to-night as every corner of our communities come together to celebrate all things LGBTQIA+SB joy.

Dapper dogs, DJs and dancefloors join over 200 food, retail and community stalls – with six stages and six bars keeping you entertained and hydrated for our annual global gathering to kick-off the 2024 Festival.

FIRST NATIONS CIRCLE presented in partnership with BlaQ Aboriginal Corporation
Celebrate all things Blak excellence at the First Nations Circle. Returning in 2024, shop Blak-owned businesses, learn more about First Nations culture or kick-back to enjoy performances throughout the day.

DOGGYWOOD
Is your pooch plumped and pampered? The campest dog pageant is a crowd-favourite and returns to the Optus Arena for the third year. Registrations will open soon so snag your pup a spot to jump the queue and they could be in the running to take out one of our esteemed categories.

TRANS CAMP
Making it’s grand debut in 2024, Trans Camp is a Fair Day-first where transgender and gender diverse community groups, health services, businesses and creatives will come together ’round the fire.

KARAOKE CAVE
In another first the Optus Arena will be transformed into Karaoke Cave as the sun sets on Fair Day 2024. Hosted by the fab Tash York, the stage is yours as the sun goes down.

DRAG KING GAMES
The reign of Sho Mawood is coming to an end and a new King will be crowned on the American Express Main Stage at Fair Day 2024. From weight lifting to bingo calls, the prestigious Drag King Games is back and competition is hotter than ever.

Please note: due to the uneven terrain of some parts of Victoria Park, this area may not be accessible to all patrons.
